I do not recall YTCA limiting litter numbers. AKC does not...I am not defending volumne breeding..but if a breeder like Durrers or NikNak, just to name two are producing champion after champion, I think how many litters they breed is their business. One litter every two years or 4 every year makes no one reputable and ethical. |
There are no rules as to how many litters a breeder has, the only rule I know of is that there is spacing of litters to insure your females health.
And as you stated the Top Breeders do have 6 or 7 Champions a year, however, not all are Championed by the Breeder but, by other show homes where they have placed their quality dogs with.
Top Breeders that are world renowed and have contributed much to the Yorkshire Terrier....Pastoral, Yorkboro, Parkside, Durrer, Rothby (deseased last year). There are only an elite few that are turely part of the Top Breeders.
